Great UPS small sizeI have this UPS hooked up to my home server, router and modem. When the power went down all of my equipment stayed up and running while the rest of the house was dark , had no issues keeping the email server active for over 15 min when the power came back on.

Fantastic 1500VA UPS!I want to start off by saying that my initial impression upon opening the packaging and setting the unit on the floor for the first time was... "Wow! This thing is much smaller and lighter than I was expecting!" I am impressed by the feeling of quality considering the compact size and affordable price of this 1500 unit.
The BX1500M includes 10 total outlets - 5 of which are actual Battery Backup Connections and then 5 are only Surge Protection but this has proven to be more than enough for my needs without having to scramble for additional outlets.
After connecting everything my entertainment center currently has to throw at it (Newer 55" 4k Television, Xbox One X, a Netgear Range Extender, a work Phone and Headset on the Battery side with a Playstation 4 Pro, two external Hard Drives and a LAN phone on the Surge side) I was met with 30% load and around 20 minutes of runtime. Not bad considering how thirsty the XB1X systems are known to be.
I will say though that because of the compact size of the unit and typical spacing of the outlets I did have to attach a few 6" outlet extender cables to accommodate some of the larger odd shaped plugs on some of my equipment but that was to be expected.
The front of the UPS has a friendly easy to read LCD status screen and three easy to see light up buttons including Power, Status Info, and Mute. Very happy with the info status options you can cycle through as well as the size and feel of the rubberized buttons on the front top of the unit.
The one minor complaint I have with this unit is that it does not include multiple easy access USB charge ports as some newer units are beginning to include. I can only assume that APC will update the next design to include better USB functionality. If this unit had multiple USB charging ports I would have easily given it a full 5 star rating.
It DOES have a proprietary cable providing a USB connection off of the back but I think that is just an interface cable and not meant to charge anything via USB but I will have to go back and take a second look at that and possibly update my review in the near future.
One complaint I have read online about these units is that it can emit an annoying noise/chirp and I am happy to say that my unit is super quiet and I don't even know it's in the room with me unless I look down to see it smiling back up at me.
I will also say I am very happy with the fact that it includes a generous Equipment Protection Policy as well as a 3 year repair or replace warranty which is fantastic.
For the price I would say this is a very good deal providing backup and surge protection for several power hungry devices and I am definitely going to recommend a purchase to anyone in need of such a device. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

LCD Screen is greatI've owned a couple different UPS units over the years and decided to try this version with the LCD Screen. After using it for a while I decided I really liked this feature, it shows you how the power is performing your home and what the expected battery time would be if the power went out. Overall happy with it! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
